Yes, the democrats are not stopping the neocons from their takeover. The only politician who gives me hope is Ron Paul, because he would completely cut off government funding of corporations, which is the essence of fascism. There is time to save our country if we elect him. But it would take reclaiming our elections, which we have shown little inclination to do. False elections is another hallmark of fascism that Wolf doesn't mention... But the most insidious is the reluctance of regular citizens to "stick their neck out"...everyone wants to stay under the radar to avoid being on "the list". Understandably so. For those who are not on the list, life can continue comfortably through many years of crisis. It is only conscience that makes some people step forward.

Arbitrary detentions have already started---of every nationality except our own. Now what?

Sorry to bring it up again. It disturbs my sleep too...
